Fast food and It's history

Fast Food is said to have originated in California in the early 1900's with simple hotdog and hamburger stands. As years passed, pioneers came up with new ways of attracting customers.

  • Karl N. Karcher was founding father of the fast food restaurant
  • The McDonald's brothers founded the "speedy service" theme
  • G. Kirby founded the "drive in" theme.

These pioneers revolutionized what we, in the 21st century, know as a typical fast food restaurant

But for the past decades, fast food chains have become multinational, multi-billion dollar industry, with outlets infiltrating every corner of the world. Chains like McDonald's, KFC, & Burger King can be located in over 120 countries thus far and can be seen in most cities across the globe.
